Dog Walking South Norfolk

“Morgan was wonderful. She took my last‑minute request while I’m recovering from an injury and handled my big, energetic dog with confidence and care. She sent photo updates throughout the walk, which was such a comfort. Consistent and warm communication, reliable, and truly a huge help. I’d book with her again. Highly recommend.”

About: Im athletic, love to run, love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I’m looking forward to having fun with dogs. My uncle has a dog that I love to play with and have been playing with her since I was young. She is cute and loves to play with tennis balls. I prioritize communication with owners and ensure comfort for both the owners and the pet throughout the duration of the stay Pet care fits into my almost daily routine. From working with dogs and other forms of pet sitting, my years of experience layer into my daily life and shine through my care With an acre of land for a dog park, fenced in deck and plenty of grassy land in my community make it easy to walk dogs and allow dogs all the space they need to enjoy the outdoors

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience working in animal shelters, dog daycare centers, and boarding facilities. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and needs. After recently losing my beloved dogs, I realized I wasn't quite ready for another long-term commitment, but I deeply missed having dogs around. Rover has given me the perfect opportunity to open my home and heart to dogs while helping other pet parents feel confident their pets are in good hands. I'm a stay-at-home mom, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. We have a large fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. I also have two cats who grew up with dogs and are comfortable sharing their space, as well as two young children who have been around dogs their entire lives and know how to interact respectfully with them. For the comfort and safety of every pet in my care, I only accept dogs from one household at a time. This allows me to provide individualized attention and create a calm, stress-free environment during their stay. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. My mornings typically begin with feeding pets, potty breaks, walks, or playtime before my family's daily activities start. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Throughout the day, I can accommodate additional potty breaks, outdoor time in our fenced yard, feeding schedules, medication administration if needed, and plenty of affection and enrichment. In the evenings, pets are included in our family's relaxed routine, with more playtime, walks, and cuddles before bedtime. For boarding and daycare, dogs are rarely left unattended, and I only accept pets from one household at a time to ensure each pet receives personalized care and attention. I care for every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routine, preferences, and personality. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful, so I strive to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and secure. For dogs, I provide regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. Dogs have access to our large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and because I am home throughout the day, they receive consistent attention and companionship. I only care for dogs from one household at a time, which allows me to focus on their individual needs and maintain a low-stress environment. For cats, I ensure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and attention at their comfort level. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a quiet and reliable caretaker, I respect their personality and routine. I am also comfortable following special instructions, administering medications when needed, and providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’m not just a sitter I’m your pet’s calm, cozy, reliable home‑away‑from‑home. I specialize in creating a soft, stress‑free environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood. I communicate clearly, respect your routines, and treat every animal like family. Your pet gets comfort, consistency, and genuine care—not just supervision. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life as a cat mom. Every day includes feeding, fresh water, litter care, enrichment, and calm bonding time — so adding your pet into my routine feels seamless. I’m used to managing structured play sessions, keeping environments clean, and maintaining consistent routines. Weekly, I plan enrichment activities, rotate toys, and make time for extra grooming or deep cleaning. In my client’s home, I follow your pet’s routines exactly to keep their environment familiar, comfortable, and stress‑free. I provide attentive care—feeding, walks or playtime, litter or potty upkeep, and gentle companionship—while keeping your space tidy and your pet feeling completely secure.

About: I have had dogs since I was a young kid and now have one of my own. Over the years I have trained her to do some tricks (minimal!) and she is a very well behaved dog. I have a remote-work schedule leaving flexibility to walk, play, cuddle, and care for your dog. This schedule leaves extra time in my routine to care for another animal and share the love I have for animals. I’m currently working remotely and have time throughout my day to check in on your pet. I am available to come anytime throughout the day. I live in an apartment complex so have the common spaces to walk your dog throughout. I will follow any instructions you provide me for where your pet feels most comfortable in your home/neighborhood.

“Erin was friendly, reliable, and always respectful of both my needs and my dogs' routines while I was recovering from surgery. It was such a relief knowing my boy was in caring, dependable hands during a challenging time. I'm very grateful for her help and would happily use Erin’s services again.”

About: I love interacting with animals and especially dogs. I have looked after friends cats and dogs before. For walks I am good with dogs that move at all paces: fast or leisurely. My family's dog is a 14 y.o. mini dachshund and I have loved watching & caring for her at all stages of life. I am looking to walk/care for dogs on the weekends as this is my most available time. I work longer days as a physical therapist throughout the week. I care for my pet personally & others by showing lots of love by giving belly rubs, treats, playing with pets or letting them lounge. I ensure the environment is safe by keeping an eye on pets in the home or in the yard, whether they are playing or taking a potty break.

About: I’ve always had a dog in my home growing up, I even trained my family’s current household dog, a German Shepherd, when she was a puppy. I have experience pet sitting all shapes and sizes of dogs but have more experience in medium-large sized breeds, I love them all! I’m currently not working as I’m finishing up my EMT academy/certification while also in school full time. I’m using this as income for the time being. Unfortunately with my grumpy cat I am not able to board pets in my home but am more than willing to stop by and visit your fur baby when needed!

“Feeling overwhelmed and being unable to take our lab for walks in the midst of everything was heart wrenching. Chris was a life saver and stepped in within hours of our request. He was also extremely punctual and clearly knew what he’s doing. Our lab came back from his walks looking super satisfied, energy released and calm all through the day. Highly recommend Chris!”

About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds for about 10 years and always make sure they are comfortable while their family is away. I have experience providing medications as well as insulin injections for elderly diabetic dogs. I have recently adopted a dog of my own, Maxx, who is a 1 year old lab mix. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play, but also enjoys his naps and relaxation. I currently work M-F 8-5 so I do not accept all booking requests during the week. My weekends are usually wide open and allow me much more time and freedom to go on walks and regularly take pets out for potty breaks. I do not have a yard at my apartment but I love to be active by taking walks or going on runs, especially when the weather is nice! I have a dog of my own that I crate during the day and have cared for dogs that crate or roam throughout the day.

“I love Monique as our dog walker! My Vicky enjoys her walks and is happy when I return home! ?? I also love the comments on my Rover card from Monique! She understands my dog like a person ❤️? The best dog walker I’ve had thus far!! ??”

“Simone walked my 2-year-old puppy. He can be a handful but she has taken to walking him like a pro. What impressed me most was her beautiful smile when she walked in her positive attitude and her genuine affection for my Dasher.”
